Babies are ugly. Admit it, we all know it, they look like tiny old people covered in mucus. They have soft heads! And they grow into children, tiny sociopaths with underdeveloped brains. And then they become teenagers, pimply self-righteous lunatics driven by hormones.
And then, slowly, if you're lucky, they gradually become adults.

Just because it's all pimples and hormones and frustration right now doesn't mean it's never going to change.

The world is so much bigger than we are. It contains things that we can't even imagine, and if we limit outselves to our own minds, we'll never grow.

It is a fundamental property of the universe, an unbreakable law, that matter has the inherent capacity to become more than the sum of its parts.

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.
